That’s not a hotfix, that’s a hotbreak. Let me also add a comment from wowhead:

[kalistoh] said:
So, let me get this: if I want to complete the achievement for killing the rares while transformed as a crab, now I have to
1- Wait for the crab to spawn
2- Spend 20mins killing it
3- Pray the claw drops
4- Go to the spawn point of one of the rares I need to kill
5- Wait for the spawn.
6- Engage the rare and use the claw before I kill it, because the claw has 10min duration but you can’t solo a rare in that time because of the high HP.
7.- Go to 1

They think it’s fun to wait for the rares for hours. Oh, that also counts as playing hours for the statistics.

Cool, can you do the same thing for Enchanters and Elemental Shatter? I tried to shatter a Awakened Order to do a rank 3 Sophic Devotion for a guild member while in the new raid and was prompted with an error message saying I needed to be in the Dragon Isles.

You guys need to redesign Temporal Warp, buff Time Anomaly, or aura buff every mage spec. Please and thank you.
